[SOLVED] Word processor

[PDN]

The title is what I Googled and I extensively researched each of the word processors to no avail.
I was looking for a free program to relace Word which I could use offline which I could send as .Doc or .RTF
I use the file explorer in Windows 11 ver. 22H2 build 22621.900.
I have docs in file explorer such as months duties, and weekly things to do. Also some other PC notes, nothing sensitive.
Can you think a of a word processer I could use instead of the obvious Google results ?
Thank you

what do you consider "the obvious google results"? and why are they not good enough for your very basic use?

what are you looking for that the obvious 3 or 4 free options don't offer?

What did you find that does not work for you?

Sorry to sound so picky when they all I want is an word processor preferably one that works off-line and has a DOC extension at least RTF. I just need to fill in file explorer where I have Microsoft Word.

LibreOffice works off-line.
And integrates with File Explorer.

Specifically, what tools did you find that do not meet your needs?

I was trying to avoid subscriptions. and stay offline. I never got the handle of Google.
I also wanted to keep it simple and use a word processer without a suite.
I know it sounds picky, but I was trying to simplify. I just needed file explorer with some documents.

Wordpad is about all that's left then.

Thank you-I will see if word pad will do it.

I don't see where Libre Office Writer doesn't meet your needs. I don't use the other components of Libre Office and the Writer component meets all my needs and has done so for years.

I was looking for an app not a whole suite. I found Libre Office suite to be crowded and I do not need anything but a word processer.
But thank you.
